I am unable to follow what you are doing.  I thought there was one box...your
daughter's.  Now there are 2.  This and that.

FWIW, both of those URLs you cite play just fine under F16/Firefox/HTML5 on my Intel
i5 system.  As I said, and as Sam has also pointed out, there really is no reason to
mess with the tar file.  Nobody I know jumps through hoops longer.

Good luck.
